21. His timing is poor, his delivery halting, his voice gruffly shrill....
And it's obvious he's not very bright. He can't deliver a punch line off a cue card without sounding like the idjit football player in the back of the class being forced to read "King Lear" out loud.

And this is all without bringing his politics into question.

Even without the politics, Quinn is a poor comic. His appeal seems to be that of the drunken bullying boor, spanking nerds with a wet towel in the locker room. If you think that shit is funny, then you probably think Colin Quinn is funny. But to me, the best humor should be a revenge of the repressed, like Richard Pryor, Bill Hicks, Lenny Bruce, you know, the powerless getting back at the powerful, not the other way around.
